Example :
Corruption
Thesis
Do you know what the meaning of corruption
is? What is the relation between money and corruption? Well, corruption is
common everywhere in the world, even in the United States. It’s just a matter
of intensity. However, it is quite shocking when one reliable survey claims
Jakarta as the most corrupt place in Indonesia.
Argument 1
The survey has made me sad, actually, because
I stay and earn a living here in the capital. As most people know, Tanjung
Priok port smuggling is not a new thing at all. Entrepreneurs who want to
minimize their tax payments tend to do such a thing more often. They even bribe
the officials.
Argument 2
Well, I think the measures taken so far to
overcome the problem by punishing the corruptors is still not far enough. We
have to prevent the younger generations from getting a bad mentality caused by
corruption.
Recommendation
I believe we should start at the
earliest stages in school and I think everyone should be involved in the effort
to eradicate corruption. We must not make any distinction.
Fuel Price
Must Be Dropped
Thesis :
Government
should cancel the rise of fuel price done in beginning of October 2005. Most of
Indonesian people badly beg it for some basic reasons.
Argument 1:
First, for Industry.
The rise of fuel price will increase their production cost because they must
pay more for fuel and electricity used in the process of production.
Consequently, it will rise the selling price for the product. If the product
price is increased, it will be hard for the product to compete with the goods
from other countries. The export will decrease rapidly and government will lose
the income from exporting goods.
Argument 2 :
Second,
for workers. The rise of fuel price will force the company where they work to
limit the budget to low the number of workers. It means hundreds even thousands
of workers will lose their jobs. The jobless people will increase instability
of nations because they will do whatever they can do to get some money, even by
doing crime. What a dreadful nightmare!
Argument 3:
Thirdly,
for ordinary people. They must manage their finance to survive because the rise
of fuel price will increase the price of their basic need's price. They have to
find alternative ways to survive,
reducing the meals, postponing the buying of unnecessary things or event for
the from school. This is the worst.
Recommendation :
Based on
the facts above, considering the negative impact of the rise of fuel price
above, government must cancel the rise and try to find other ways to cover the
lack of the national budget by not cutting the subsidy of fuel.
Example of dialogue:
Virna : Hi guys, what is your
suggestion for our task?
Sandro : We should be
more careful in doing it.
Made : We must also
understand the lesson material.
Tri : Dharma,
my laptop is error, how is this?
Darma : We must bring your laptop to the to the CV.
Mulia Computer for service.
